REGON AGRICULTURAL COL-
Corvallis, Feb. I. (Spe
cial.) The time for the war gar
dener to begin work Is near at hand
and plans for gardens already are un
der way in many homes. This season
the war garden will be a serious con
sideration, due to the fact that so much
wheat and meat have been released for
war purposes, reducing the home sup
ply. Many of the enthusiastic garden
ers of last Spring are not anxious to
try the vegetable raising plan next sea
son. To combat this feeling and to give
advance information on war garden
planning. G. B. Bouquet, of Oregon
Agricultural College, has prepared a
bulletin on the "Home Vegetable Gar
den." Other bulletins on the actual
growing of vegetables will be issued
when the season for that work arrives.
Many Gardens Kail.
. The factors which caused amateur
gardeners to fail last year in pro
ducing norma crops are many, says
Mr. Bouquet- Many people planted
without knowledge of how to garden.
The past year's training will prove
valuable this year. Unfavorable wea
ther conditions last season were dis
couraging. No definite planting plans,
the selection of unsuitable ground and
the lack of fertilizer, were factors
which contributed much to the failures.
The seed supply of 1918 is unusually
low because of the reduction of foreign
crop Importation, excessive buying of
seed last year, and unfavorable seed
crop weather conditions. Many Inex
perienced gardeners bought too much
seed for their backyard plots. Garden
ers should realize this shortage and
estimate the quantities of seed needed
and should plant carefully to prevent
loss of seedling plants by excessive
thinning.
Fertiliser Held Keeeeaary.
Last Spring city gardeners endeav
ored to grow bumper crops on ash
heaps, and other unsuitable tracts. In
most instances the seeds gave up the
struggle after a short period and the
garden was a failure. Few garden
areas will produce satisfactory crops
without the addition of fertilizer. To
be of good quality vegetables must
THRIFT DAY TODAY
Objects Will Be Set Forth at
Auditorium Meeting.
IDEALS WILL BE EXPLAINED
Oregon War Savings Stamp Organi
zation to Make Public Acquainted
With Government's Objects
In Coming Campaign.
Thrift, particularly as to its practice
at this time as a patriotie'duty in con
nection with the Government's war
savings stamp campaign, will be the
subject of discussion at a mass meeting
at the Public Auditorium at 2:30 o'clock
today in observance of National Thrift
day.
It is the desire of the Oregon war
savings stamp organization to make
the public acquainted with the Govern
ment's aims and ideals in the thrift
campaign. The campaign is to last
until December 31, 1918, and though
the raising of 32,000.000 for war-winning
purposes is one of the ultimate
objects in view, Oregon's share of the
fund being 317,000,000, the National
thrift organization places in importance
before the financial end the awakening
of a war-consciousness and the spirit
of co-operation and the inculcation of
habits of thrift.
Ideal to Be Studied.
The Ideal rather than the material
Istic purposes of the campaign will be
especially considered at today s meet
ing.
There will be no charge of admis
sion, no collection will be taken, and
no sales solicitation will be made.
K. B. McNaughton, chairman of Con
gressional District No. 1, in the Y. S.
S. organization, will preside. Brief ad
dresses will be made by Rev. E. H. Mc-
Collister, dean of St. Stephens pro.
Cathedral, Episcopal; Rev. V. W
Toungson, district superintendent of
the M. E. Church; Rev. K. H. Pence, "of
W estminster Presbyterian Church
Rabbi Jonah B. Wise, of Congregation
Beth Israel; Rev. Father Cartwrigl t, of
the Catholic Church, and K. A. Brown
for the Young Men's Christian Associa
tion.
Fredrick W. Goodrich will play a
number of selections on the pipe organ,
and there will be other music, including
vocal solos and a quartet.
"There is still some lack of appreel
ation tn the public mind as to what
the War Savings Stamp campaign
really Is. says Henry E. Reed, chair
man of the civic-military committee of
the War Savings Stamp organization,
"and National Thrift day has been se
lected throughout the Nation as a fit
ting time at which to set forth the
real objects of the propaganda."
Churches to Observe Day.
The mass meeting at the Auditorium
will be a continuation of the thrift
services to be held at many local
churches this morning.
Sales of war savings stamps in Ore
gon are increasing steadily.
Word was received at campaign
headquarters-Saturday that J. M. Han
naford, president of the Northern Pa
cific Railroad system, has made ar
ran tcemen ta so that travelers over
Northern Pacific lines, "including
branches, from St. Paul to the Pacific
Coast, may purchase war savings
stamps and thrift stamps from company
agents at all stations.
Nearly 800 additional selling stations
will be Inaugurated as a result of Mr.
Hannaford's arrangements.

Major-General Now in France
to Return to U. S. and Have
. Title: as Acting .Chief.
PERSHING!S .WORD AWAITED
Officer at Present in Charge of Ar
. tlllery of American Expedition
ary Forces and Making
... . . .Excellent! Record.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 2. Speeding un
of general staff activities is expected
to follow the appointment of Major
General Peyton C. March as acting
Chief of Staff of the Army, announce
ment of which depends only on advices
from General Pershing that the officer
can be spared from his duties as chief
of artillery of the expeditionary forces.
Secretary Baker would not discuss
his plans today, but it is known that
he has determined upon General March
the most suitable officer to take
over the work of this important post.
General Bliss, the staff chief, will re
main in France as the permanent rep
resentative of the United States. on tho
supreme war council, which determines
policies to be carried out on the vari
ous fronts.
Both officers and civilians who have
returned from France recently have
brought back word of the impression
General March had created by tho
energy and skill displayed in organiza
tion of his branch of the service under
General Pershing.
Pershlns Thought to Approve.
Private messages from France have
indicated that the American commander
approves the selection and will not
block General March's appointment, but
so far as is known, no official reply
has come from General Pershing.
Coming from many months of close
contact with the fighting fronts in
France, General March will be able to
put into his task as head of the Army
all the knowledge he has acquired- Ho
is reputed by his fellow-officers to ba
a man of quick decisions, a quality re
garded as vital in a successful chief of
of staff.
Upon him rests the burden of seeing
to it that -the various bureaus of tho
department, as well as the line officers
of the Army, work out their problems
in harmony.
Important Matter Clogged.
During the time General Bliss and
his predecessor, Major-General Hugh L.
Scott, were absent on foreign missions
there has been a tendency for impor
tant matters to become clogged in tha
general staff office. It has been diffi
cult to get final decision on even ur
gent matters.
General March Is 53 years old. and
was born in Pennsylvania, from which
state he went to the military academy.
He was attached to the artillery
branch continuously, with the excep
tion of duty-as Major and later as
Lieutenant-Colonel of volunteer infan
try in 1899-1901 for Philippine service.
General March commanded the Astor
battery in the Spanish-American War.
He was graduated from the- artillery
school . with high marks in 1898 and
served on the general staff from 1903
to 1904. During the Russo-Jp.panese
war he was military observer for the
United States Army, with the Japa
nese troops.
The qualifications of General March
for duties have been highly spoken of
by orticers of General Perehinsr s staff.
Secretary Baker is known to have had
under consideration for some time tho
urgent necessity of putting a young
and vigorous man at the bead of the
staff to co-ordinate all the military
branches of the Army.
Blddle to Continue Assistant.
Major-General John Biddle, assistant
chief of staff, and now acting chief. In
the absence of General Bliss, will con
tinue as assistant as far as is known.
Army officers see in the appointment
of General March promise of a moro
thorough uniting of all War Depart
ment agencies than has been possible
heretofore, owing to the peculiar situ
ation in. which the general staff has
found itself ever since the entrance of
the United States into the war.
When the war began Major-General
Scott, chief of staff, was promptly de
tached for duty in Russia with the
Root commission. General Bliss, as his
assistant, took over the work, but did
not succeed to . the title of chief of
staff until General Scott's retirement.
Almost. immediately, after his elevation
to that post he was in turn detached
to go to Europe and has not since
functioned, as chief of staff. It is an
open secret at the War Department
that there has been a lack of carefully
organized staff work due to this situ
ation.
